Correction of congenitally missing lateral incisors with porcelain veneers

The ability of the dental professional to improve a patient's smile has become a benchmark in modern aesthetic dentistry. When one type of tooth is transformed into another through the restorative process, special care must be taken to ensure correct preparation and gingival contours to create the illusion that the teeth are in their correct position. With accurate digital photographic planning, active patient consultation, detailed tooth preparation, and a meticulous laboratory sequence, porcelain laminate veneers can be functional and can achieve the aesthetic expectations of the patient.
